Abstract
A kickover tool having a ratcheting mechanism comprising a ratchet arm and a ratchet track. The ratchet arm is pivotally attached to an arm assembly and the ratchet track is attached to a surface of the main body. A method for operating the kickover tool apparatus can include the tool being able to traverse a tubing string and place or retrieve a tool or object from a side pocket mandrel. A string of two or more kickover tool apparatuses can be used to retrieve and/or place two or more separate tools or objects in one or more side pocket mandrels during a single trip operation. The kickover tool can function without placing any side loads on the side pocket device during the placing or retrieving procedure, thereby preventing any bending or fracturing of the side pocket device.
